Induction heating is a heat treatment process that allows very targeted heating of metals by electromagnetic induction. Induction creates a magnetic field that generates eddy currents within the base metal, heating it internally like a microwave. Induction cables or blankets are placed on the part and the magnetic field is generated when electricity runs through the cables or blankets. The process relies on induced electrical currents within the material to produce heat and is the preferred method used to bond, harden, or soften metals or other conductive materials.
Induction heating utilizes electromagnetic induction to heat conductive materials quickly and precisely, ideal for industrial applications requiring controlled and localized heating.
This method offers rapid heating, precise temperature control, and minimal energy loss, making it suitable for various manufacturing processes, from metalworking to food processing.
